Bondorf (Bad Honnef)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bondorf is a district of the city of Bad Honnef in the North Rhine-Westphalian Rhein-Sieg district .

geography

Bondorf adjoins the city center to the north-east and stretches from west to east to the Reichenberger Höhe , a hill on the edge of the Siebengebirge or the Rheinwesterwälder volcanic ridge , of the middle terrace of the Rhine. To the north Bondorf flows smoothly into the district of Rommersdorf , to the east it is bordered by the Honnef city forest . Since Bondorf lies in the middle of the closed development of the Bad Honnef town center and has no classic town center, its area can only be defined on the basis of historical boundaries. The district extends roughly from Bondorfer Strasse in the northeast to Rommersdorfer Strasse in the southwest and includes altitudes between 80 and 110  m above sea level. NHN .

history

Way cross in memory of the Sacrament Chapel Domus Dei (2015)

The place name Bondorf, formerly also Bonndorf or Bolendorf , describes the altitude of the village within the Honnef valley widening of the Rhine. Agriculturally usable soils and the easy accessibility of spring water from the Siebengebirge probably triggered the settlement of the place. In addition to a few wells as walled-in spring casings, including the Buchebonne (which still exists in 1925, but no longer exists today) , a pond that was later silted up as a fire pond on the "Kütteldrief" (corner of Rommersdorfer / Bismarckstrasse) was used to irrigate the cultivated areas . Market and fair were held at today's Göttchesplatz (formerly the cherry market), which belongs to Bondorf . At the southeast corner of the square (today's high-rise building of the hospital ) was the Domus Dei sacramental chapel , founded and built in 1341 by Heinrich von Löwenburg and his wife , whose endowed goods - including a field ("Peschfeld"), a meadow ("Peschwiese") Vineyards, fruit and willow trees with their yield - formerly belonged to the church in Reitersdorf . The roof of the chapel burned down in 1689 in the major fire caused by French troops along with a large part of Honnefs - the upper part of Bondorf remained largely unscathed. In addition, their income was lost over time. Therefore, it was demolished in 1762, the property sold and the goods combined with the income of the parish. The sacrament house in the chapel had previously been moved to the parish church; the annual market (“cherry market”) connected to the chapel's consecration festival existed until around 1860. A cross at Göttchesplatz reminds of the former chapel. The municipal Fasseichungsamt (existing until the end of the 1920s) was built on the square in 1871/72, which led to its temporary name Aichamtsplatz .

Bondorf was one of six honors that made up the parish of Honnef from 1555 until the dissolution of the Duchy of Berg in 1806, and from which the community of Honnef then emerged. It bordered in the north on the Honschaft Rommersdorf, in the south on the Honschaft Beuel and in the west on the Honschaft Mülheim . The early landlords in Bondorf included the noble family of the Lords von Rennenberg with a court court and the Minorite Monastery in Bonn with a hermitage (on the southwest corner of Göttchesplatz). The Jesuits were wealthy here from 1643 with the Sandhof - on the southern side of today's Bismarckstraße, between the confluence of Reichenberger Straße and Im Gier - a former governor's farm of the Lords of Loe and Nesselrode . In 1663 the Honschaft had about 230 inhabitants, in a land measure description of the parish Honnef in 1678 42 farmsteads and 57 acres of vineyards. A little more than half of the vineyard area was locally owned and was the smallest among the Honnef honors; their share of the total agricultural area was slightly below average at 34%. In 1746, 19 taxable wineries were visited in Bondorf during a so-called “ cellar visitation”, whereby the red wine share of 114 ohms found was 42%.

In 1828 Bondorf had 286 and in 1843 already 342 inhabitants. In the five decades after the town elevation of Honnef in 1862, Bondorf grew structurally together with the neighboring former honors, and viticulture lost its importance. At the end of the 19th century, residential development extended largely along Rommersdorfer and Bismarckstrasse, which was characterized by historicist villas . Villa Thelen was built on the western edge of Bondorf in 1886/87, in which the Swedish Queen Sophie resided several times. In 1900 the building became the property of the Franciscan Sisters , who set up the St. Josef Monastery and ran a secondary school for girls with boarding school . Initially she had 26 students, five years later she had 94 students. In 1907 a new wing was built on Bismarckstrasse, and in 1914 the institution was recognized as a lyceum . After the Second World War , the monastery buildings were confiscated by the American occupation forces and in 1948/49 - to run a school - by Belgian occupation troops; since 1951 they have been used as accommodation for the convent school again. The boarding school was closed in 1961 and the school was converted into a secondary school in 1979 with the introduction of co-education . After the Second World War, the Villa Heckenfels , located above Bondorf, was confiscated by the Belgian armed forces led by Jean-Baptiste Piron , and from 1949 it served as the residence of the British Deputy High Commissioner (Christopher Steel).
